If you are a Gold Star widow or widower with children under 18 (required), we’re so glad you’ve found us and we look forward to speaking with you soon.  Please apply for support here.

If you would like to nominate a Gold Star family who has children 18 years or younger, please submit as much information as possible here.

PLEASE NOTE – we may not respond with a formal email or phone call for approximately 30-45 days but we WILL reply.

We are a 100% volunteer 501c3 non profit organization, comprised of both veterans and civilians that:

1. raise awareness for service men/women with children who were killed in service,
2. supports the immediate family/children they left behind with a financial donation(s), and
3. supports the children left behind by instilling the message that they have their own legacy; their life must go on and the loss of their parent does not define who they are or who they can become.

SEAL Family Legacy has a Board of Directors that is responsible for reviewing all applications and selecting Gold Star families.

Once an application is received, it is reviewed at the following month’s board meeting.

A represenative from the Board will reach out to the applicant after the board meeting to verify information and interview the primary adult family member.  At some point, a video call may be requested.  Selected families will be notified no later than May of the following year (this gives us time to raise as much funds as possible to be able to select as many families as possible).

At this time, SEAL Family Legacy hosts an annual ride for any vehicle that can maintain the posted speed limit on highways and interstates. This ride is typically held on the 3rd Saturday each July.

The 3rd Friday in July, an annual gala will be held with a special guest speaker and an auction.

Each May, a business event is held for businesses interested in learning more about SEAL Family Legacy.

The most up-to-date event information will always be posted to our Facebook page.
